I see the reasoning for 1/3 (1/3 of all non-GG families are BB), but 1/2 seems correct. If you specified that the son was the older sib, possibilities narrow to BB/BG, so the answer is 1/2. Same if you specify he's the youngest (BB/GB). And he has to be either youngest or oldest. — PolitiTweet.org

You visit a town with exactly 1,000 families. Each family has exactly two children. On the street, your tour guide points to a passing man and boy and says, "That's Mr. Smith and his son." With only that information, what is the probability that Mr. Smith's other child is a boy? — PolitiTweet.org

A couple months ago I deleted TikTok because the Chinese were reading my texts or something ? and now I’m living in the absolute trash can of Instagram reels, which is like being force fed an endless line of Twinkies. Huge downgrade. — PolitiTweet.org

Important note: February has 28 days (7 x 4). Each day has 24 hours (8 x 3). Each hour has 60 minutes (6 x 5 x 2). So February has 8! minutes. 8 x 7 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 2 x 1. — PolitiTweet.org

@hingehead Go back to the early 1800s and there are 100+ direct ancestors of yours roaming around, and if any of them aren't born or don't end up living the exact lives they lived, there's no you. If that boat from the 1300s doesn't make the massive impact it did, there's for sure no you. — PolitiTweet.org
